Sadly that doesn't solve this problem (though I support the suggestion for other reasons). The big issue is that under the hypothetical scheme, the effective vote power P of sets of players has the property P(S u T) - P(S) = VVLOD(T) (for |S| >=2). Thus, the effective bargaining power every non-empty set of players (with any other non-empty set of players) is always equal to their (summed) VVLOD. That's boring. -woggle
